Archway Health Care
Weight Loss Clinic in Sacramento, California
About Archway Health Care
Archway Health Care provides integrated healthcare services that address both addiction recovery and weight management challenges, recognizing the complex relationship between substance use disorders and metabolic health. Our comprehensive approach understands that sustainable recovery often requires addressing all aspects of physical and mental well-being.
Many individuals in recovery face weight management challenges due to medications, lifestyle changes, or metabolic effects from previous substance use. Our specialized team includes addiction medicine specialists and weight management professionals who work together to create safe, effective treatment plans that support both sobriety and healthy weight goals. We believe that comprehensive health includes physical fitness, proper nutrition, and ongoing support for all aspects of wellness.
Services Offered
Our unique integrated services combine addiction medicine with specialized weight management programs designed for individuals in recovery. Addiction medicine services include medication-assisted treatment for opioid, alcohol, and other substance use disorders, along with counseling and behavioral therapy. Weight management services are specially adapted for clients in recovery, taking into account medications, metabolic changes, and the psychological aspects of both conditions. We offer nutritional counseling that avoids triggering restrictive eating patterns while promoting healthy weight loss. Medical supervision ensures that weight loss medications and strategies are safe for clients on addiction treatment medications. Group therapy sessions address the emotional and behavioral aspects of both addiction recovery and weight management. We also provide family counseling and support services, recognizing that both conditions affect entire family systems. Our approach includes relapse prevention strategies that account for the stress that weight concerns can place on recovery.

What to Expect
Your care begins with a comprehensive assessment that evaluates both addiction history and weight management needs, including medication review and metabolic evaluation. We create integrated treatment plans that address both conditions simultaneously while prioritizing recovery stability. Initial phases focus on establishing healthy routines and coping strategies that support both sobriety and weight goals. As your recovery progresses, we gradually introduce more intensive weight management strategies. Regular monitoring ensures that weight loss approaches don't interfere with recovery medications or trigger unhealthy behaviors. We adjust treatment plans as needed to maintain the delicate balance between addiction recovery and healthy weight management.

Insurance & Pricing
Most major insurance plans cover addiction medicine services, and many also cover medically supervised weight management when appropriate criteria are met. We're experienced in working with Medicaid and other programs that serve individuals in recovery. Our financial counselors help navigate insurance benefits and identify resources for clients with limited financial means. We work with local recovery organizations to ensure that financial barriers don't prevent access to necessary integrated care. Sliding scale fees may be available for qualifying clients who lack adequate insurance coverage.
First-Time Patient Tips
Success requires commitment to both recovery and health goals, with the understanding that recovery always takes priority in treatment decisions. Be honest about any concerns regarding food, weight, or eating behaviors, as these can impact both conditions. Attend all scheduled appointments consistently, as both addiction and weight management require regular monitoring and support. Family involvement is encouraged, as both conditions benefit from strong support systems. Be patient with the process, sustainable changes in both areas take time and shouldn't be rushed. Most importantly, communicate immediately if you experience cravings or urges to use substances, especially if they're related to stress about weight or body image.
